Thanks for all the information, it is being really useful. I didn't know that there were different names for tag clouds, that is also good to know ! I don't feel really comfortable about having search-cloud like information on the index. We would like to have those concerns separated and for this

Sorry for that. Most searched terms tag cloud is kind of common around here. "Solr doesn't keep any record of the searches performed, so to build a tag cloud based on query popularity you would need to mine your logs." Do you know if there is already a tool or a Solr plugin for that ? Thanks

If you want a tag cloud based on query freqency, start with your HTTP log analysis tools. Most of those generate a list of top queries and top words in queries. wunder On 2/26/09 2:54 PM, "Chris Hostetter" wrote: > > : I may have not made myself clear. When I say keyword report, I mean a kind

I am developing a Solr based search application and need to get a kind of a keyword report for tag cloud generation. If there is anyone here who has ever had that necessity and has somehow found the way through, I would really appreciate some help. Thanks in advance -- View this message in conte
